You Told Me to Coast Through Life, So How Did I End Up Carrying the Great Yu Dynasty?

[Empress Sister + Mind Reading + Slacker Survival + Invincible Power Fantasy + Lighthearted Comedy + Farming and Development]

Also known as The Great Yu’s Number One Playboy and The Slacker Prince: The Empress Eavesdrops on My Thoughts and Begs Me to Ascend the Throne.

“Now that I’ve transmigrated as a prince and my older sister is the empress, doesn’t that mean I can just lie flat?”

Clinging to this modest wish, Li Yun begins his slacker life as the Great Yu’s number one playboy.

But he never expected that his aloof, imposing elder sister, Empress Li Hongzhuang, could hear his thoughts!

The Left Chancellor pressures the empress to spend her own money.

Li Yun sneers inwardly: [That old fox keeps a mistress in the east of the city and secretly colludes with the Northern Barbarians. Why not hold a charity auction and talk all these corrupt officials out of the clothes they’re wearing!]

The empress responds with a “Royal Auction,” raking in a fortune while the Left Chancellor nearly spits blood.

To avoid doing any work, Li Yun pretends to be a fool in his thoughts every day.

But the empress refuses to play along!

Li Yun renders lard into soap in the backyard, and the empress disguises herself on a private visit and swipes the recipe;

Li Yun plants sweet potatoes in the fields, and the empress leads all the court officials in cheering, “A heavenly blessing has arrived!”;

Li Yun casually sketches a curved-plow design, and the empress immediately promotes it throughout the country.

Then one day, the Northern Barbarians invade with a massive army, and the Great Yu is on the brink of disaster.

Li Yun sighs helplessly: [You can’t even use a single musket. Looks like I’ll have to personally direct the Divine Machine Battalion to fire those ‘no-conscience’ cannons.]

After annihilating thirty thousand elite Northern Barbarian cavalry in a single battle, the empress drapes her dragon robe over Li Yun. “Sixth Brother, you take the throne. Your sister is tired.”

Li Yun clings desperately to the doorframe. “No! I won’t be emperor even if you beat me to death! I want to go home and sleep!”
